What is macramé?
Macramé is an ancestral weaving technique based on the knot, said to have originated with Arab weavers in the 13th century. Derived from the Arabic "Migramah" meaning "embroidered veil".
The technique then spread to Spain and Europe.
There are different types of knot in the macramé technique:
- Flat knots are used to create jewelry, and are the most commonly used knot in macramé.
- Raised knots are used to make pot holders, curtains and sculptures, for example.
